Here's the chous of the song (I heard Claire Lynch and the Front Porch String Band do this one).

My name is Judas, My Lord I did betray/ I placed the kiss upon his cheek that gave my Lord away/ I was forgiven but I could not bear the shame/ So I hung myself in a potter's field, Judas is my name

If anyone can help me out, it'd be much appreciated!

Here you go. It's from her magnificent gospel album 'Friends for a Lifetime':

MY NAME IS JUDAS
(Harley Campbell)

Chorus:
My name is Judas, my lord I did betray
With a kiss upon his cheek, I gave my lord away
I was forgiven, but I could not bear the shame
So I hung myself in the potter's field
Judas is my name

I was there when he walked upon the water
I was there when he fed the multitude
I saw when he gave life to a man's only daughter
I was one of twelve, one of the chosen few

(Repeat chorus)

I was there the night he promised to redeem us
And he knew that I had left the fold that day
Yes, I sold my soul for thirty silver pieces
And I led the soldiers to him in the garden where he prayed

(Repeat chorus)

You can hear a very fine performance of this song by a bluegrass band called the High 48's at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZU2cETZwP8.
